Ever since moving up to the 22's I've been getting way too many 4th place finishes. I think it's a product of the fact that there are more people by Level 4 and I feel uncomfortable pushing into 5+ people with marginal hands with <7 BB. Maybe my bubble play is off too. Here are a few example hands. Thoughts?

I know these are all really weak hands, but they are the best I've been seeing in level 5 when my stack is getting low, do i just push and hope for the best? Thanks in advance for any replies.
